Rove: The Lessons of Defeat for the GOP
Keywords:
To the other reasons, callousness on social issues and towards women and immigrants, Rove adds additional ones. The lower voter turnout with ony 51.3% of voters turning out to vote in the 2012 U.S. presidential election, the poor timing of the convention when it should have been held in June, the lack of response to an ad blitz with negativity throughout the late summer that Romney lacked funds to respond to. He points to the role of the Super PAC's and the American Crossroads organization he created in preventing the Republican candidate from being strangled by a single ad blitz in the summer that spent 20% of election campaign funds of the Obama campaign.

Election campaign financing strategies and fund raising efforts that led to Republican Romney's defeat in the U.S. presidential elections of 2012
11/07/2012
The primaries hurt Romney in two ways. He took too extreme a position on immigration to win close elections in primaries, and he ran short of money by the end of the primaries giving the Obama campaign an opening to define him by early heavy spending in the key states. The fund raising efforts also were away from the midwestern states and led to a lack of campaigning presence in those states during the summer leaving him badly behind in voter perceptions especially because his record at Bain Capital was open to attack.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
